New Sharing Options on Projects

In September 2024, we began transitioning from the "Project Members" logic, where users could join any public project in Productive on their own.

This functionality is being replaced with new project-sharing options, that align more closely with the sharing mechanisms used for budgets, Docs, and dashboards.

As part of this update, the distinction between Private and Public projects will be phased out.


​Key Changes:
​

1) New Sharing Options

The new project-sharing settings will allow for more controlled and customizable project access.

2) Removal of Public and Private Projects

The concept of Public and Private projects will be phased out.

  • Public Projects: Existing public projects will still be visible and accessible to all employees.

  • Private Projects: Existing private projects will remain shared only among the previously designated members.

Watching a Project

By turning on project watching, you'll receive notifications about task activities on a project, ensuring you're always up-to-date.
​
This feature is particularly useful if you want to monitor specific projects and receive real-time updates on their progress.

Switch between watching and not watching a project by clicking on the eye icon.

Note: To watch or unwatch a project, you must be a project member first. Read more about project-sharing options here.

Adding the Project to Your Favorites

Add projects to your favorites sidebar for easy access by clicking on the star icon.
